    Fantasy drama Alchemy of Souls captivated viewers with its magical story of mages finding their destinies and discovering love in the process. The series proved to be a hit all over the world and managed to stay on the Netflix Global Top 10 TV (Non-English) chart for an impressive 15 weeks. And now, the enchanting tale is set to resume on December 10 and we couldn’t be more thrilled. With many stories left unfinished, here are some reasons why you can’t miss the return of the series.

    Jang Uk’s Evolution

    Despite being born into a prominent mage family, Jang Uk (Lee Jae-wook) was initially unable to learn magical skills due to his birth secret. However, everything changes when he meets his new master. Jang Uk then fights against the destiny he was born into and gains new powers. Returning 3 years after coming back to life, Jang Uk is a completely changed person. We’re definitely intrigued to see a new side of Jang Uk soon.

    The Return of Naksu

    Naksu (Go Youn-jung) was a powerful sorceress and assassin before ending up in the body of a blind woman named Mu-deok. From having murderous intentions to experiencing love, Naksu changes drastically. However, she becomes unable to control her situation and everything shifts. Now a mysterious woman with Naksu’s appearance has emerged. There’s much to be unraveled with this new development.

    The Friendships

    Alchemy of Souls is such a satisfying blend of everything from magic, action, comedy, and friendship. All of the different friendships truly shine! The bromance relationships between Jang Uk, Seo Yul (Hwang Min-hyun), Park Dang-gu (Yoo In-soo), and crown prince Go Won (Shin Seung-ho) are so endearing. And we can’t forget Mu-deok’s friendships with the boys as well. Will their friendships stay the same or change?

    The Romance

    Of course, you can’t leave out the romance. In addition to Jang Uk and Naksu’s compelling love, we have many relationships to root for. Have Park Dang-gu and Jin Cho-yeon (Arin)’s lovely plans changed? How about Park Jin (Yu Jun-sang) and Maid Kim (Oh Na-ra)? Will some of the single men find new love interests? We’re intensely invested in seeing some happy couples.

    The Fate of Everything

    Alchemy of Souls has delighted us with an intricately woven plot with a deeply rich storyline and engaging characters. With the epic story set to wrap up, the fate of the fantastical world of Daeho and all its characters remains the biggest question. What will happen to this majestic realm we’ve thoroughly fallen in love with? Only time will tell when the story continues on December 10!

    If you haven’t watched the show yet or you need a refresher on what has happened thus far, now is the perfect time to stream! Be ready and don’t miss out on the return of Alchemy of Souls, only on Netflix!

  • Wanderland Completes Wave 1 Artist Lineup for 2023

    Wanderland Completes Wave 1 Artist Lineup for 2023

    After a three-year long wait, Wanderland Music & Arts Festival is officially back on track after announcing their first wave of artists for their highly-anticipated return set on March 4 & 5, 2023. 

    The Wave 1 lineup consists of 11 acts that span across the globe with different styles, flairs, and influences, so there’s plenty to be excited about.

    Let us give you a rundown. 

    Wanderland Festival 2023

    Phoenix makes pivotal return

    Right off the bat–Phoenix, a pop-alternative band from France, was announced to headline next year’s season.

    Phoenix has been well-loved by Filipino fans, many who have been following them since the early 2000s. The opportunity to catch the band’s electrifying sounds and infectious melodies live is a champion move and is something one simply cannot pass up–again. 

    Wanderland 2023 will mark Phoenix’s third visit to the country and we can only imagine what a spectacle it will be. 

    Soulful, swoon-worthy superstars 

    Fall into a dream-like state with soft, lush, and sentimental tunes from Men I Trust (CA) and Stephen Day (US). With carefully-curated melodies and thoughtfully-written lyrics, both artists lead the pack for music that’s perfect for embracing and romanticizing life. 

    If there’s something that could get you feeling like you’re on cloud nine, you’ve found your go-to’s.

    Applaud to Asian acts

    Wanderland also sets the stage for discovery and celebration of Asian music. Hailing from Taiwan are alternative-indie pop rock band, Sunset Rollercoaster, and singer-rapper, Leo Wang and making waves from South Korea are alternative K-Pop band, Balming Tiger and K-HipHop artist, George. They are all set to make their debut in the Philippines next year and we’re pumped to experience the diversity and exciting talent from our friends in the region.

    It’s about time we make more noise for Asian music! 

    Locals with versatile sounds and vocals

    No Rome, a homegrown artist now based in London, is known for his collaborations with The 1975, Charli XCX, and dijon, but don’t be fooled—his solo music gets you even more hooked through his mix of shoegaze, R&B, and electronic dream-pop guaranteed to fall into your last song syndrome list.

    Blaster, who recently pursued a solo career from the band, IV of Spades, made headlines when he debuted DISKO FOREVER (Japanese Version)—yes, the song is completely sung in Japanese! If this is any indication of what an experimental journey his music holds, then we’re all ears (and dance shoes ready) for what he has prepared for his festival performance. 

    August Wahh has been establishing her name in the music scene not only locally, but internationally, having been invited to the ASEAN Music Showcase Festival and opening for artists like Daniel Caesar and RAC. If you’re looking to get into the vibe of neo-soul music, August Wahh is your girl.

    The Sundown, based in Cebu and champions of Wanderbattle 2020, is finally making their way to Manila to bring their nostalgic anthems and tasteful Cebuano sounds on the Wanderland stage. As their name suggests, should we have them play the sunset slot?

    It’s already a packed roster but it’s just the beginning of the greatest comeback of team Wanderland.

    Newsletter subscribers can enjoy a limited WANDERMAIL EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT beginning Nov. 24, 10AM – Nov. 30 or until supplies last. To unlock the discount, a code will be sent via email to each subscriber. 

    • Regular Wanderer tickets: PHP 6,500+
    • Star Wanderer (VIP) tickets: PHP 11,000+

  • Space-Ta hosts listening party for Flight of the White Rekusasu album

    Space-Ta hosts listening party for Flight of the White Rekusasu album

    Electronic avant-pop artist Space-Ta threw a listening party at Whitespace Manila on November 18, 2022, to celebrate the upcoming release of his full-length debut album, Flight of the White Rekusasu.

    Incorporating genre-blurring soundscapes with intricate beats and retro-futurist production, Space-Ta’s 8-track record blasted through the speakers as the audience enjoyed free-flowing cocktails and drinks against a backdrop of minimalist, underground club scene.

    DJ acts Baby Oliv and Red-i complemented the mood of the event with banger-after-banger jams that evoke after-hour rumination in a retro-futuristic set.

    A voiceover that hints about the concept behind Space-Ta’s new album was also played during one of the segments of the program. “In a world where the TIME COUNCIL has countlessly reformatted life as we know it, Space-Ta journeys back in time to explore extinct music genres and bring them back to the planet with the cinematic beauty that they once had,” introduced the VO. “An enigmatic figure in the 2032 music scene, he opposes norms, defends freedom restricted by the powers-that-be, and rediscovers himself as an artist poised to transform the world.”

    Flight of the White Rekusasu will be available on digital platforms worldwide on November 25, 2022. The album is set to be released under Lockdown Entertainment—home to several critically acclaimed artists in the Philippines such as Tarsius, Flying Ipis, Assembly Generals, and more.

    Space-Ta: About The Artist

    An elusive figure in the music scene, Space-Ta is a time traveler-philanthropist-musician that lives in the year 2032. From a world where TIME COUNCIL has countlessly reformatted life as we know it, S-T moves back and forth in time to re-establish and reconnect erased music genres that were banned by the TC.

    Like graffiti rivals, S-T re-establishes the undone music by collaborating with past musicians to bring back what was lost while simultaneously rediscovering himself in the process.
    Space-Ta’s story is continually told through music, animation, and various forms of media- all of which are given to his listeners in small doses and through fleeting experiences.

    We say, Mama Mama Moo~

    MAMAMOO officially debuted in 2014 with the extended play, Hello, led by “Mr. Ambiguous”. Their debut received praise from critics which considered it one of the debuts in K-Pop for 2014. “Mr. Ambiguous” entered the Gaon Digital Chart at number 53 and peaked at number 19. They then followed up Hello with the EP Piano Man and a single of the same name.

    The following year, the girl group came out with Pink Funky and the single “Um Oh Ah Yeh”. The song gave the girls their first top-three single on the Gaon Chart. In 2016, they held their first solo concert in South Korea, the 2016 Mamamoo Concert-Moosical. The tickets to the show were sold out in one minute.

    MAMAMOO continued their breakthroughs with their first studio album, Melting. The lead single, “You’re the Best”, debuted at number three on the Gaon Chart and peaked at number one the following week. In addition, the girl group received their first music show win with “You’re the Best”.

    MAMAMOO then launched their “Four Seasons, Four Colors” album series in 2018, beginning with the pre-release single “Paint Me” in January. The group’s sixth EP, Yellow Flower, which included the single “Starry Night,” served as the inaugural entry in the album series. “Starry Night” became one of the group’s most successful singles, earning platinum certification from the Korean Music & Content Association for 100 million streams in November and 2.5 million paid downloads in July 2019.

    The girl group continued the album series with Red Moon, with the single “Egotistic” in July 2018. Red Moon, which debuted at number 25, was the group’s first appearance on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums chart. Blue;s, the third album in the series, was released in November 2018, along with the single “Wind Flower.” In March 2019, Mamamoo released White Wind, the final piece of the “Four Seasons, Four Colors” album series, along with its lead track “Gogobebe.”

    MAMAMOO competed in the Mnet reality show, Queendom, where they came in first place. Following the end of the show, the girl group released their second Korean studio album, Reality in Black, and its lead song, “Hip” in November. Reality in Black debuted at number one on the Gaon Album Chart, marking the group’s third number-one debut. Additionally, “Hip” reached the top of the Billboard World Digital Songs Sales chart, becoming their first number-one single.

    In June 2021, they released their 11th EP, WAW, with the lead track “Where Are We Now”. WAW topped the iTunes albums rankings in 21 different countries and sold over 40,000 domestic copies on its first day of release. In September, I Say Mamamoo: The Best, a compilation album, was then released alongside the lead track “Mumumumuch.” The album peaked at number eight on the Gaon Album Chart.

    This year, MAMAMOO marked their return with their 12th EP, Mic On, and the lead single “Illella”.

  • Festival of Lights Is Back Live and On-Ground at Ayala Triangle Gardens

    Festival of Lights Is Back Live and On-Ground at Ayala Triangle Gardens

    Ayala Land makes Christmas happen with the return of Festival of Lights 2022!

    After running virtual editions of the Festival of Lights to continue the well-loved tradition while ensuring safety during the pandemic, the most anticipated family Christmas tradition is back LIVE and ON-GROUND at Ayala Triangle Gardens with never-before-seen features to usher a BIGGER and BRIGHTER celebration.

    Bobby Dy, Ayala Land President and CEO, shares, “The Festival of Lights is more than just a visual spectacle and delightful sounds. It is a well-loved annual tradition that has enabled us to connect with the community in a very unique way. It has brought joy to millions as it brings together people from all walks of life and from all over the country.”

    In partnership with Kroma and Acid House, Ayala Land begins the affair with a fun and quirky introduction to the actual Light Show. Aimed to build a celebratory vibe by creating excitement in light the two-year pause, the intro video—following the idea of “The Christmas Lights Factory”—suggests that Santa and the elves are working hard to bring the Light Show back. Projected on the canopy façade, everyone gathered at Ayala Triangle Gardens will catch the elves as they prepare the Christmas lights machine to work. As soon as it does, the machine produces lights of various shapes, colors, and sizes. The elves, then, pick these up and transport each element from the screen to the trees surrounding ATG. It ends with Santa with a powerful switch that turns everything on, ready for the Light Show.

    Director Ohm David and Lighting Designer Sueyen Austero conceptualized this year’s grand presentation. As Christmas tunes play, visuals will be projected on the trees around ATG. It begins with moving constellations that slowly form colorful indigenous patterns to tell the story of creation. As the scene builds, the screen blacks out then reveals stars, halos, parols, and other festive icons, which then merge to form a kaleidoscope of images. Moving and turning, it will ultimately end with an explosion of colors.

    Accompanying the light show are three holiday medleys. The first is an orchestral rendition headed by the Manila Symphony Orchestra, followed by an upbeat TikTok rendition arranged by Jazz Nicolas and Mikey Amistoso, in collaboration with Tris Suguitan. The show concludes with a soothing chorale rendition by Jazz Nicolas and Mikey Amistoso.

    The Festival of Lights has been globally recognized as as one of the best Christmas displays in the world, with many awards and citations received over the years. Bobby Dy furthers, “It’s a platform to showcase the Filipino talent. Together with our team, select Filipino designers, musical composers, and many local artists, have worked together to create this one-of-a-kind original show.”

    Honorable Abby Binay, Mayor of Makati, muses, “The lights in Ayala Triangle have always been a symbol of hope, bringing people together and symbolizing the community spirit, which makes our city so unique. As we prepare for the Christmas festivities, let us all remember to keep that spirit alive and continue working towards a better and brighter future. In Makati, we make it happen.”

    Everyone is invited to watch the Festival of Lights at Ayala Triangle Gardens running every night until January 8, 2023. The show plays every hour, with the first run at 6pm and last run at 10pm.

    More to come

    Ayala Land and Make It Makati is bringing back the kind of Christmas we all love and miss. With more upcoming events and festive displays, Makatizens can expect exciting reunions with loved ones this December and beyond.

    Watch out! More to come are Ayala Land’s Christmas Market at Ayala Triangle Gardens on December 2 to 31 in partnership with the French Embassy; Simbang Gabi at Ayala Triangle Gardens on December 15 to 23 featuring a live performance by the Philippine Youth Symphonic Band on the opening night; and the Samsung Performing Arts Theater’s Christmas Extravaganza on December 20 to 22 featuring Simbang Gabi services and free-for-all concerts for any purchase receipt at Ayala Malls Circuit.

  • Dive into Netflix’s Slumberland in Manila.

    Dive into Netflix’s Slumberland in Manila.

    Recently, I had the pleasure of viewing Slumberland at Greenbelt Cinema 3 courtesy of Netflix Philippines, and I must say that it’s a great film full of exciting and meaningful experiences, touching moments, dreams, and hopes.

    The film will make you laugh, it will make you cry, and it will also make you think about the world we live in. I think everyone should watch it at least once because of the compelling story it tells. There are highs and lows, but on the whole, it’s an excellent film that everyone should watch. You might want to bring a box of tissues along, though, because there are some emotional moments.

    Robinsons Manila, in celebration of Netflix’s highly-anticipated SLUMBERLAND film, teamed up with the world’s leading streaming service to offer viewers an adventurous escape like no other.

    The mall has been transformed into an inflated recreation of the dreamers’ refuge as part of a promotion for the debut of the much-awaited, fantasy-drama movie, “Slumberland.”

    The enormous playground, which opened last Friday, November 18, is being called “Inflatable Slumberland,” will welcome “dreamers” for free until the 22nd of November.

    The attraction was designed with a 23-foot ball swim, gigantic slides, a maze, and a bounce room, all of which were inspired by the settings used in the movie starring Jason Momoa and Marlow Barkley.

    Slumberland is now exclusively streaming on Netflix.
